March of life for Israel in Switzerland

What began in 2007 with a small prayer march in Germany has developed into a worldwide movement. We have no doubt that the God of Israel calls us here in Switzerland, as well, to respond to this appeal, for:

Is. 60:12, „For the nation or kingdom that will not serve you will perish; it will be utterly ruined.“

John 4:22, „…for salvation is from the Jews.“

Along with the regional annual marches, this national March of Life for Israel is truly a unique, one-time event. It will start at the Lake of Constance where the three German-speaking countries border the lake. They are linked by a kind of „collective guilt“ toward the Jews during the Holocaust. The march will end at the „Place of the Nations“ in Geneva in front of the European UNO headquarters. Where there is anti-Semitism or opposition to Israel, nearly all nations are involved. It is time to act.

Why Switzerland? In addition to its location in the heart of Europe, Switzerland is called among other things to watchmen’s ministry in prayer, to be a prophetic voice and a blessing. This ministry is directed to its own population, Israel and the nations (especially in Europe). The march’s core elements are:

Remembering: Giving a voice to the (Jewish) victims of the Nazis and their descendants.

Reconciling: Confessing sin, apologizing, restoring relationships.

Setting signs: Honestly working through the past. Decisively standing against anti-Semitism.
